حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الرَّحِيمِ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ، ثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الْمَقْبُرِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ، عَنِ الْقَعْقَاعِ بْنِ أَبِي حَدْرَدٍ الْأَسْلَمِيِّ ؓ، قَالَ:

مَرَّ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ بِأُنَاسٍ مِنْ أَسْلَمَ وَهُمْ يَتَنَاضَلُونَ، فَقَالَ ﷺ: ارْمُوا بَنِي إِسْمَاعِيلَ ; فَإِنَّ أَبَاكُمْ كَانَ رَامِيًا، وَأَنَا مَعَ ابْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ. فَأَمْسَكَ الْقَوْمُ بِأَيْدِيهِمْ فَقَالَ ﷺ: مَا لَكُمْ لَا تَرْمُونَ ؟ قَالُوا: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، نَرْمِي وَقَدْ قُلْتَ: وَأَنَا مَعَ ابْنِ الْأَكْوَعِ، وَقَدْ عَلِمْنَا أَنَّ حِزْبَكَ لَا يُغْلَبُ، فَقَالَ ﷺ: ارْمُوا وَأَنَا مَعَكُمْ كُلِّكُمْ

✧ The Messenger of Allah ﷺ passed by some people of Aslam who were competing in archery. He ﷺ said: 'Shoot, Banu Isma'il, for your father was an archer, and I am with Ibn al-Akwa'.' The people held back their hands, so he ﷺ said: 'What is the matter with you that you do not shoot?' They said: 'O Messenger of Allah, should we shoot when you have said: "I am with Ibn al-Akwa'"? We know that your side cannot be defeated.' He ﷺ said: 'Shoot, and I am with all of you.'
